Long ago I was tasked with swapping someone's Porsche off to them at their house, as the service writer the evening before had given the customer the wrong car.
Both black. One a panamera (so?) 4, one a 4s. One with dealer plates (the one they ended up taking home..) , one with a custom plate.
So, after showing up to this persons house (through a golf course, up a winding top of the hill driveway), I knocked on his door and asked him the same question (after apologizing for the workers mistake).
"Oh, well, it was evening and the radio stations were programmed in the same, so I just didn't even think about it. In the morning I said "well, that's strange, usually they wash the car nicely before returning it -- then I realized it wasn't my car".
Guy was super down to earth about it, not a care at all and the exchange was very pleasant.
Point being: some people just really go with the flow, and even with 100k+ cars 20 years ago, sometimes just don't really pay attention to, well, much of anything. Bigger fish to fry, I guess.
I'll never forget the whole interaction, fully expecting a grumpy person and coming face to face with "eh, life!".
